DEAR MOM, Thank you for saving my life
When you held me in your armsFor the very first time
My baby blues stared back
Into your loving hazel eyes
As we grew older you became
One of my best friends
Someone whom I could rely on
Until the very end
To this precise day your strength
Continues to amaze me as you
Have no control over watching
Your once healthy daughter deteriorate
Constantly spiraling downwards
Over and over again
Four years with this disease
So many tears, so much pain
You never gave up on me
Always remained by my side
I want to thank you for that
Thank you for saving my life
This Mother's Day was different
I miss seeing your smiling face
Hopefully next year I can get out of bed
So we can go out and celebrate
You brought me into this world
With all your love to give
I wish you knew how much you mean to me
You are the reason I still live

I would be so lucky if someday I was blessed with one of my own and could be at least half the mother you are to me.
I love you!
